Great gardens: Growing Places for Miriam

For Adam Jaques, Growing Places for Miriam is not just a business, but a labour of love, after being established by his mother, who had a keen interest in gardening. “The business was started by my mother Miriam, who sadly passed away six years ago, after she got leukaemia,” Adam says.

“I took it over from there. Six years later, it has grown considerably and still loving what we do.”
